Olympique de Marseille has named Italian Gennaro Gattuso as coach following the departure of Marcelino, the French Ligue 1 club said on Wednesday.
The 45-year-old Gattuso takes over after Spaniard Marcelino left the club amid a feud with the Marseille supporters.
Gattuso left Valencia in January, seven months after his appointment with the LaLiga side just above the relegation zone.

It faces AS Monaco on Saturday before hosting Brighton & Hove Albion in the Europa League.
